    Video Lightweight Bike Camper

    This is absolutely amazing, I never would have thought to use campaign signs as a material for a build but it makes so much sense considering how durable they are. I think the main concern would be how cops would treat you, the legality of it in general, and how to lock it down when going into...

    Cargo Trailer Camper
